THE MYSTERY IS COMING TO A CONCLUSION!

This is the next to the last step. Most of you may even figure out the last step after completing this one! If so go for it!

Step 7

First Row:
Start with Block D-C-B-C-B-C-B-C-D. Notice the orientation of the D Blocks. The light strip is on the outside of the D & and top of C blocks.
Last row:
The same as the first with the light strips on the bottom.
The number of C and B blocks will depend on how big your top is. Mine is 9 blocks across.
EVEN & ODD Rows
With the remaining Block A divide them into piles of 5 or 7 depending on the size you are making.

EVEN Row: (top row)
Start with Block B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-B.
Sew B block to the first A in your pile - keep adding As until that pile is finished then add another B to the end. Do this with each pile until you have used all of the B Blocks.
ODD Row (bottom of picture)
Start with Block C -A-A-A-A-A-A-A-C. Just as you did the Even row. Notice that each time you sew an A block onto another block you have changes the orientation of it.

You are almost done.

ps. what do you think of my hanging helper? The only place I had to hang the sections for a picture was from Buck's antlers! Hubby would shoot me if he knew! But hey it worked!

About Me

I have been doing needlework - sewing, quilting, crocheting and knitting since I was 10 years old. I love to try new and quick techiques! I have been machine embroidering since the late 1980s. Love it! To combine the quilting and machine embroidery together is the best of both worlds!
I have plenty family to shower my creations on with a husband, 2 daughters, 1 son, 1 daughter in law, 2 son in laws and 5 granddaughters and 1 grandson!
